Her name was Victoria Smith, a former junior at Pacific University, where Ethan studied. They were once a golden couple at the university, admired by countless people. However, no one expected Ethan to suddenly be kicked out of the Alexander family, while Victoria dropped out of school to settle abroad.This incident once became a hot topic of gossip at the university, with many students discussing and sharing the story.Today, seeing Victoria appear here, Ethan couldn’t help but recall a part of his memory that he didn’t want to relive again.“Why can’t I be here? This is my father’s company, and today I’m here to assume the temporary vice-presidency position he left behind. As for you, a once-prominent heir of the Alexander family, now reduced to working as a security guard at a shopping center? I even heard that you married into the Edwards family?”Facing Victoria’s scrutinizing gaze, Ethan couldn’t help but feel a little mysterious. He quickly shook his head and intended to turn
Lloyd’s eyes widened in sheer horror at this moment, never imagining that the female officer would dare to shoot. Moreover, her gun muzzle was only a few centimeters away from his crotch.“You... you dared to shoot me?”Although the gunshot didn’t hit him, seeing the smoking muzzle, Lloyd’s legs involuntarily trembled, with some dampness appearing below his crotch.Ethan, witnessing this scene, was also shocked and stiffened.“I’ll remind you once more. All of you sit down and immediately put your hands on your heads. Anyone who defies my orders, the next shot will not be a warning!”The female officer glanced at Lloyd’s group and sternly spoke to Ethan.“And you? Sit down and put your hands on your head too!”Although he knew he hadn’t done anything wrong, Ethan could only endure and decided to sit down and follow her instructions.“Hmph!”Seeing Ethan’s expression, the female officer snorted disdainfully. Ethan remained silent, wondering what grudge this officer had against him.“Al
Returning to the hospital, Ethan saw it was already 5 PM, leaving just over two hours until his appointment with Victoria. However, his mood was far from good.He had wanted to forget about the Alexander family. Still, today, Ethan felt enraged by the image of his mother pushed off a cliff by the wicked Emersyn Miller and learning that her son wasn’t his father’s biological child. He wanted to quickly return and ensure the crooked woman and her child received the punishment they deserved.“Ethan, where have you been all day? My father just had surgery, and the doctor said his health is improving significantly. In a few days, he’ll wake up quickly!”When Ethan entered the room, he heard his wife’s slightly scolding voice. However, a distressing sight caught his eye before his expression could relax, causing his eyebrows to furrow.“Son-in-law Toshan, without your help this time, my husband might not have survived. You could even invite a foreign doctor to treat him only because of your
Ring... ring...Just as Toshan’s gaze was captivated by Suri’s departing figure, his phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket. With astonishment, he took out the latest iPhone model and saw that the caller was the chairman of the Outstanding Development financial group.“Hello, this is Director Toshan speaking. What is the reason for your call, Mr. Chairman?”Before Toshan could finish, an angry voice erupted from the phone.“Damn it! What the hell have you done? Do you have any idea who just called me? You almost got me kicked off my chairman’s seat because of your actions! Do you understand, you bastard?”After scolding him for a while, the chairman’s tone became somewhat conciliatory.“I don’t know who you’ve offended, but you’d better apologize to them. If not, don’t bother coming back to the company. Go as far away as possible, and never return!”Upon hearing these words, Toshan’s face paled. He knew that the latter would not have necessarily said such things if it weren’t for the c
After Ethan’s figure disappears, Melanie hugs a pillow and cries. The pillow muffles her sobbing, leaving only the sound of choked tears.Unaware of this, Ethan heads toward the temporary office of Dr. Suri. However, when he arrives, he hesitates and sees armed officers surrounding the hallway. As he approaches them, he spots Audrey, the policewoman, among the plainclothes officers.At that moment, Ethan couldn’t help but frown, intending to turn away and leave. However, the soldiers guarding outside noticed Ethan’s sneaky behavior and quickly became alarmed. One of them swiftly approached to stop him.“Who are you? What are you doing here?”The officer’s voice caught the attention of the other undercover police officers, including Audrey, who saw Ethan’s mysterious face. Instantly, her eyes lit up with interest. She whispered something to another officer nearby, and the soldiers’ expressions changed. They soon surrounded Ethan with their weapons raised.“Ha ha, officers, I just got l
At 7 pm, the sea shimmered with lights, reflecting the image of a young woman standing alone, leaning on the railing and gazing dreamily towards the distant horizon. As soon as Ethan stepped out of the taxi, his eyes were quickly drawn to the girl's silhouette. After all these years, she hadn't changed a bit. However, in life, there are some things that, once they happen, can never be changed again. Just like a spilled water bowl, how can it be filled again? If it weren't for her mentioning their child, Ethan really wouldn't have wanted to come here to see her. "Have you been waiting long?" Trying to cast aside the turmoil in his mind, Ethan quickly approached Victoria's figure and laughed gently. Hearing his voice, Victoria finally turned around and looked back at him. Today, she deliberately wore a light pink dress. It was the same dress she had worn when they first met. Back then, it was pouring rain, and she was trying to ride her old Martin bike to her part-time job in the
Watching their backs as they left, Ethan turned back to the little girl: “Are you alright?” “Yes, I’m... I’m fine!” she replied timidly, seemingly scared when Ethan’s gaze met hers. At that moment, Victoria bent down to pick up the girl’s white rabbit-shaped hat and handed it to her. Her eyes filled with kindness. She smoothed the girl’s messy hair and smiled: “Little girl, don’t be afraid! He’s a good person and often helps people like you!” While saying this, Victoria playfully narrowed her eyes at Ethan. Knowing her intentions, Ethan could only shake his head and chuckle. Then, he turned to the little girl and asked gently. “Little girl, you don’t look very old. What grade are you in this year? Why aren’t you at home studying instead of doing a job like this at this hour?” Ethan knew that being a mascot was an extremely tough job, and the pay wasn’t much. Usually, only students with complex financial situations took on such part-time jobs in the evenings. Moreover, this job al
Seeing a young man with two girls entering the restaurant, the waitress couldn't help but feel curious. One girl was elegantly dressed, exuding an air of nobility, while the other wore a fluffy animal costume, her hair a bit messy. The waitress looked at the trio with a puzzled expression. Feeling the waitress's gaze, the girl shyly tugged at Ethan's sleeve, whispering, "Maybe you two should go in first. I... I don't think I should go in." Understanding her embarrassment, Ethan didn't say much and held her hand, leading her into the restaurant. Feeling the warmth from Ethan's hand, the girl's heart pounded incessantly. Although Victoria felt a pang of jealousy, seeing Ethan's pure gaze devoid of ulterior motives, she smiled and followed them in. Seeing the three large bowls of beef noodles on the table, filled with abundant meat, the girl involuntarily swallowed her saliva. Hungry... "Go ahead and eat, don't be shy! The noodles here are delicious, and the price isn't too high,
“Destroy,” Ethan roared, swinging the Ancestor Blade powerfully. Countless beams of light converged on the sharp blade, launching a mighty attack against the skull.The Ivory Sage, not to be outdone, merged with the skull, which then seemed to gain intelligence. Its eyes glowed a ferocious red, and its enormous mouth seemed ready to swallow Ethan whole.The night and light, good and evil clashed, as if bringing the apocalypse.Black and white light intersected, splitting Mist Isle and the sea.The endless sea began to boil, everything disintegrating in moments.Then, under the white light, the terrible power exploded outward, with Ethan and the Ivory Sage standing at the center of it.“Retreat, quickly retreat,” Ricky and Green Dragon, astonished, commanded their armies to pull back.But they were too slow compared to the terrifying power.With a loud crash, dozens of warships were lifted tens of meters high, rocking violently.“Something’s wrong, protect the warships,” Green Dragon i
Whoosh!A terrifying roar echoed throughout heaven and earth. Under the majestic aura, a golden dragon flew towards the skull phantom after Ethan's strike.The next moment, a collision that shook heaven and earth occurred.Evil and righteousness, the skull and the golden dragon collided. The sky was enveloped in a bright light."Retreat, quickly retreat," they shouted in horror, leading their people to rapidly fall back.The members of the Ivory Guild also began to flee.Under that power, a moment's inattention could lead to being swallowed up.Even standing at a distance, they couldn't help but worry.The sea boiled, with waves hundreds of meters high surging and crashing down, the momentum reaching the skies, the earth seeming to tremble."Mr. Alexander," Hugo and Lily exclaimed in shock.Even Green Dragon and Christian frowned. The power displayed was beyond their imagination. At this point, it was not easy to determine who would win or lose.After ten minutes, the huge waves fina
After the Guild Master, whether they were Emperors, Kings, or Judge Law Enforcers, all knelt in succession."We welcome the Honored Ivory."The Honored Ivory?Behind Ethan, Green Dragon, Christian, Lily, and Hugo all frowned. No wonder the Ivory Guild was so arrogant. It turns out they had a master."The Honored Ivory, so it's real," Ricky muttered, his words tinged with caution: "Not bad, no wonder the Ivory Guild has existed for so long."In front, Ethan narrowed his eyes, saying nothing as if he wasn't surprised, even appearing somewhat expectant.Was the Honored Ivory the person he was looking for?Unnoticed by anyone, the sky grew cloudy, the drizzle turned heavy, giving a cold feeling like winter in summer.Moments later, a water spout shot up from below Mist Isle, quickly reaching hundreds of meters high.Observing closely, one could see a person standing on that spout, clad in a black cloak with a skull pattern, appearing majestic.Under that black cloak was a mask, hiding the
"Hmph, if you seek death, I'll oblige," Timothy grunted and moved to attack Ricky first.The battle ensued, a formidable power surging through the space."Christian, it's time to settle our scores," Solomon's three Judges from the Ivory Guild stepped forward, their faces filled with rage, seeking revenge on Christian."You think you're worthy? All three of you come at once," Christian said coldly."Christian, today you must die."The three Judges grimaced, their cold laughter intensifying as they lunged at Christian."Three against one, where's your honor? Green Dragon will join the fun," Green Dragon laughed and immediately stood beside Christian.The three Judges were the strongest under the Grand Mage, each at the tenth level. Christian alone might be at a disadvantage."Alright, let's see who kills more," Christian's fighting spirit surged as he licked his lips.Green Dragon wouldn't be outdone. Together, the five of them surrounded each other, their immense power enveloping the i
Christian frowned but remained calm. Just an octopus attempting to confront Mr. Alexander was indeed naive.Sure enough, moments later, the black slime suddenly changed to yellow, and the tentacles seemed to be put through a meat grinder, turning into hundreds of pieces. Blood and flesh splattered, filling the sea with a pungent smell of blood.The octopus howled in rage, burying its head in the water. It wasn't dead; it was trying to escape.But Ethan wouldn't let it get away so easily. His eyes cold, he raised the Ancestor Blade high and slashed towards the octopus.The vast sea seemed to split in two under the power of his sword, even the water parting. The octopus barely had time to escape before it was cut in half.A white light emitted from the octopus's body and then disappeared. Even Christian was amazed by the power within that light."Sir, this…" Christian started to say but his implication was clear. This octopus was indeed artificially created, and if there were a hundred
Seeing the armies before him, Ethan was deeply moved. Once, he was just an ordinary soldier, who had gone through tough wars to reach this day. Seeing his brothers, he saw himself in those glorious years. "Officers and soldiers, listen to my command." "Yes." After Ethan's shout, hundreds of thousands of soldiers echoed in unison. Whether it was Green Dragon, Lily, or Hugo, everyone appeared solemn, awaiting orders. "Ethan signaled for the army to board the warships, determined to eliminate the Ivory Guild today. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers, invigorated, bravely embarked on the warships. The Ivory Guild's stronghold was five hundred meters from the Auroria border, reachable only by warship. It was imaginable that today marked a battle of life and death. How many of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers would survive and return was uncertain. Soon, hundreds of warships plunged into the vast sea, heading towards the Ivory Guild's lair. "Sir, according to intelligence, the
The Elders of the Emperor Clan, who had lived for over a hundred years and possessed extraordinary strength, regretted that even facing Ethan, they could only do so much. "If he wasn't arrogant, he wouldn't be Ethan," the head of the Lee family sighed. "Fourth Elder, Fifth Elder, please visit the Wind and Mac families." "After decades of seclusion, it's time for our Emperor clan to emerge." After Ethan left Auroria, the entire Flower Nation was abuzz. The five major war zones and tens of thousands of soldiers and officers moved day and night, and wherever they passed, the people rejoiced and welcomed them. The mighty army marched southward to attack the Ivory Guild. As the most dangerous organization in Flower Nation, the Ivory Guild was a target that needed to be eliminated. At this time, Ethan became a hero by eliminating harm for the people and was warmly supported by the entire nation. Not only that, but all three Emperors, who had been in hiding for decades, also took this
Having said that, this person launched a cruel move towards the Heavenly Lord. The Heavenly Lord was unable to prepare in time and was killed immediately. “Okay, after dealing with that bad guy, next is the fight between us,” the head of the Ivory Guild glanced at Ethan. That Celestial Lord is nothing more than a puppet. The person behind the control and manipulation of the Ivory Guild is this Venerable. ……. Long Dao, Son Dinh. This is the place to worship the ancient Emperor. After thousands of years, only two people came here today. One person is Ethan, and the other person is the Venerable of the Ivory Guild who came because he was forced. The suppression of Ethan's great army caused all of this Venerable's subordinates to be defeated and have no way to retreat. At this time the Ivory Guild disbanded, only the Venerable of the Ivory Guild had to come here under Ethan's pursuit. When he arrived here, he saw Ethan standing on the mountain waiting for him. "Venerable Bach Cot
For example, at this moment, the strength he showed clearly surpassed the realm that Hoang Lao understood, so not long after the fight, Hoang Lao began to realize the problem, he began to scream. “Ethan, no matter how strong your strength is, you cannot destroy the Ivory Guild,” Hoang Lao said harshly. But unfortunately, Ethan in front of him just coldly cleared his throat: "Is that so?" After Old Man Hoang realized how strong Ethan was, he no longer restrained his body's strength. He used all his power, his main purpose was to kill Ethan. Seeing this, Ethan still stood as firmly as Mount Thai, not moving at all. At the same time, he clenched his fist and threw a punch, defeating all of Hoang Lao's defenses, making him basically unable to block. He was hit by a strong blow from Ethan, so he screamed in agony. “Ah…”, he was in extreme pain. Hoang Lao was so strong and yet at this moment he was defeated so easily, making the people around him surprised and speechless. They were un
